FAQs
- Core Design: A Beam Light is specifically designed to deliver a high-energy punch and maximum visual impact, producing an extremely tight, intense, and narrow column of light (typically with a beam angle of 2°–4°) that pierces through the air like a laser.
- Comparison: Unlike "Wash" lights that cover large areas with soft light, these fixtures focus on sharp, concentrated light paths.
- Best Use Cases: They are most effective in environments with smoke or haze, where their prism effects can create stunning mid-air visuals.
- Applications: They are the go-to choice for high-energy concerts, nightclub light shows, DJ stages, and any production requiring dramatic "lightsaber" effects.
- Small to Medium Venues / Weddings / Bars: We recommend LED-based models like the UKING ZQ02341 BEAM PRO (120W LED) or ZQ02255 (80W LED). Their advantages include low heat emission, long lifespan, and energy efficiency, while providing more than enough brightness for indoor settings.
- Large Stages / Outdoor Performances: If you need superior "piercing power" and long-distance projection, go for Bulb/HID (Discharge) models such as the UKING ZQ02229 (250W Osram bulb) or ZQ02042 (230W 7R bulb). These units feature precision optical lenses that maintain incredible brightness even across vast spaces.
- Prism Effects: A prism splits a single beam into multiple rays to fill a larger area. For example, the UKING ZQ02372 features dual rotating prisms (8-facet + 48-facet) that can create an incredibly complex "honeycomb" beam effect.
- Halo Effects: For added visual layers, the UKING ZQ02357 features an outer ring of 27 RGB LEDs in addition to the main beam. This halo can display 48 dynamic effects, significantly enriching the stage backdrop.
While standard stage lights are usually restricted to indoor use, we developed the UKING ZQ02314 WATERPROOF BEAM to tackle the challenges of outdoor weather. It features a tightly sealed design to block out moisture and rain while maintaining a powerful 260W output and full DMX control—perfect for outdoor music festivals or open-air parties.
- Auto/Sound Modes: Most products (such as the UKING ZQ06079 and ZQ02341) feature built-in "Sound Active" and "Auto" modes. You simply plug them in, and the lights will automatically change colors and move in sync with the music—no programming required.
- DMX Control: For pro users, all models support the standard DMX512 protocol. By connecting to a console, you can use 12–20 channels to precisely control rotation (e.g., 540° pan), color, patterns, and strobe speed.
- Gobos (Patterns): The UKING ZQ02341, for instance, comes with 8 built-in patterns. When combined with rotation, these allow the beam to project dynamic textures rather than just a simple solid circle.
- Prisms: This optical component refracts a single beam into 8, 16, or even 48 beams (like the ZQ02372’s 48-facet prism). This instantly fills the stage space, creating a massive, immersive wall of light.
